"Oh princess... love was never my religion but I'd devote my whole life to you." Lumaki si Amira na hindi man lang naranasan na makatanggap ng pagmamahal mula sa kanyang mga magulang. Palibhasa ay madalas nauutal at tahimik, mas pinapaburan ng kanyang mga magulang ang kanyang Ate Alysa, na maliban sa napakaganda ay napakatalentado pa. Kaya hindi na nagtaka ang dalaga nang sa halip na ang kanyang nakakatandang kapatid ay siya ang ipinagbili ng mga ito, upang masagip ang papaluging kompanya ng kanilang pamilya.

Ngunit kahit na alam niya ang peligro na bitbit ng kanyang asawa, hindi niya masawata ang pintig ng kanyang puso nang sa unang gabi nila ay masuyo siya nitong hagkan... Si Yasir na ba ang anghel na magpaparanas sa kanya ng walang katumbas na pagmamahal, o ito ang demonyong magdudulot ng higit pang pait sa puso niya?
